Chapter 510: Chapter 266: Change in Liu Yun Sect_2

Now that gender was no longer an issue, Lin Yi didn’t think twice. A female virtual identity could greatly distract others and throw off their search range.

Although this virtual identity would make him a female from the inside out, it was only a temporary change and his psychology stayed normal.

He began to ponder, what kind of female identity should he construct? Aunties or old women were out of the question. Since he was going for a female identity, he naturally needed to choose one that caught his eye and matched his aesthetic.

If he chose some hideous identity, he would feel annoyed just looking at himself, let alone having to show that face in the Cultivation World.

While imagining the appearance of his virtual identity, Lin Yi suddenly sensed that the Protective Sect Array inside the sect had activated its full power.

This left him puzzled. The Protective Sect Array was the Sect’s biggest defensive barrier and it would normally only activate its basic power. If a powerful enemy attacked, even if not manually activated, the intelligent array could sense danger and activate automatically.

With his Nascent Soul Realm’s powerful divine sense, he didn’t sense any powerful enemies approaching. It seemed that Sect Master Green Jade Zen Ren must have activated it manually. Could something unexpected be about to happen?

The Protective Sect Array was constructed using the geographical features within the sect and fueled by the Spirit Vein, meaning it could withstand an attack from a Nascent Soul True Monarch. This was where the Liu Yun Sect’s confidence stemmed from.

Lin Yi pulled himself out of the construction of his virtual identity and concentrated his divine senses, feeling the area around the Liu Yun Sect. Suddenly, he sensed a familiar Nascent Soul energy coming rapidly towards the sect from a far-off place.

This energy was identical to the one he’d sensed near Lord Xuan Qing’s Cave Mansion.

Had Lord Xuan Qing returned? Lin Yi released three of his Nascent Soul Divine Consciousness to sense more accurately. Through observation with his strong divine sense, he found that Lord Xuan Qing’s condition seemed quite bad, apparently seriously injured and missing an arm, with an aura of Yin Evil Qi hanging heavily over him.

Using the Eye of Emptiness, he looked at the figure of Lord Xuan Qing and his expression instantly changed. Under the gaze of the Eye of Emptiness, a sinister evil energy was seen enveloping Lord Xuan Qing’s Nascent Soul in his Dantian. This evil energy seemed to be continuously devouring the Nascent Soul, which by now was more than half-eaten.

Judging by the current injuries, even if Lord Xuan Qing could eliminate this Yin Evil Qi, it was doubtful he could regain his peak cultivation level. The bane of his Nascent Soul was tantamount to damage to the foundation; rather than pursuing the Deification Realm later, just staying alive would be an achievement.

Soon, Lord Xuan Qing hurried back to his Cave Mansion. However, because of heavy losses to his cultivation, the Golden Core Real Person within the sect should have felt Lord Xuan Qing entering the Inner Sect like a streak of light.

But they wouldn’t be able to sense his injuries.

Lin Yi retracted the Eye of Emptiness and a solemn expression appeared on his face. No wonder Lord Qing Yu activated the Protective Sect Array in advance; he probably got news from Lord Xuan Qing.

It seemed that his previous assumption was correct, the Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Liu Yun Sect had been trapped by the Heretic Sects. This was why the Heretic Sects only made minor moves and not a significant assault. Their real target was Lord Xuan Qing of the Liu Yun Sect.

A Nascent Soul True Monarch was the threshold for entering the top ten Major Sects. Having a Nascent Soul True Monarch meant that a sect had the potential to join the top ten Major Sects. Although, under normal circumstances, this could also happen if one of the top ten Sects encountered trouble, or a war could be instigated for a challenge.

If a Nascent Soul True Monarch of the top ten Major Sects was in trouble, that would mean the sect no longer qualified to be within the top ten. For the other nine Major Sects, or other sects with a Nascent Soul True Monarch, the sect would become a lamb ready for slaughter.

Without the qualification to be in the top ten Major Sects, that huge cultivation resource would no longer be deserved and would be attacked by other sects and jointly shared.

This was the law of the jungle in the Cultivation World, crueler than the secular world. In front of resource interests, there was no morality and no sentiment.

For example, the Liu Yun Sect had a good relationship with the Medicine God Valley, but would they dare to come to support them when other sects attacked? Moreover, wouldn’t they get greedy looking at the massive resources of the Liu Yun Sect?

This is definitely not a minor misfortune but a catastrophic calamity. The news that Lord Xuan Qing was seriously injured and his Nascent Soul Stage may not be preserved would certainly spread throughout the whole Cultivation World. At that time, the Heretic Sects would surely be the first to attack.

The reason was simple. They orchestrated this event, and they knew very well about Lord Xuan Qing’s injuries. More importantly, Gold Sword Zen Ren wasn’t far off from the Golden Core transformation into a Nascent Soul.

If they procrastinated further, Gold Sword Zen Ren would become the new Nascent Soul Monarch. Considering his position as the most powerful in the Golden Core Realm, he would have formidable strength even in the early Nascent Soul stage.

Naturally, the attack of the three heretic sects would elicit some reaction from the so-called righteous sects. The reason was simple – if a Nascent Soul Monarch’s cultivation was compromised, the Liu Yun Sect would lose its place among the Ten Major Sects.

Besides, Gold Sword Zen Ren retreating to contemplate his Nascent Soul was a prime opportunity. He could either stand by and watch the Liu Yun Sect perish, or he could intervene and delay his transformation into a Nascent Soul Monarch.

No matter how powerful Gold Sword Zen Ren was, he would be at a disadvantage when facing a Nascent Soul Monarch within the Golden Core Realm.

Lin Yi sighed deeply. Even a mighty Nascent Soul Monarch, the peak of the Cultivation World, could face the risk of death in this cruel world.

If he hadn’t decided to take a conservative approach, he most likely would’ve been long gone.

Even the resources that Liu Yun Sect held were coveted by others, let alone the cultivators of the Creation Method, who could potentially become Immortal Emperors and naturally provoke envy and hatred.

The timing these fellows chose was impeccable. According to the observations Lin Yi made days ago utilizing the Eye of Emptiness, Master Golden Sword’s Golden Core had started to show cracks. A little more than a year from now, he would transform his core into a nascent soul and become the second Nascent Soul Monarch in Liu Yun Sect.

By then, Liu Yun Sect would leap to the top of the Ten Major Sects. The heretic sects that had once challenged them would have to apologize and offer vast resources as amends.

Unexpectedly, at this crucial moment, Lord Xuan Qing had been ambushed and severely injured, with his cultivation possibly compromised.

To target a Nascent Soul Monarch was not easily accomplished. This conspiracy must’ve started long ago and there must be an informant within Liu Yun Sect.

Hua Yang and Wan Jun Zen Ren were the most suspicious, of course, it was also possible that other Golden Core cultivators had been subverted.

Presumably, the three heretic sects also understood that they didn’t have much time left, hence they had to act swiftly and fight with all their might, risking their entire sect.

Otherwise, the Liu Yun Sect could rely on their Protective Sect Array and the Golden Core cultivators within the sect to buy themselves some time. Once Gold Sword Zen Ren transformed his core into a nascent soul, everything would calm down.

Lin Yi guessed that soon, Sect Master Green Jade Zen Ren would summon some trustworthy Golden Core cultivators for a meeting.

After all, with Lord Xuan Qing severely injured, other sects would certainly launch attacks. This was something that could not be hidden.

Indeed, less than a quarter of an hour after Lord Xuan Qing entered the sect, Lin Yi heard a message from Green Jade Zen Ren, “Junior Brother Yun Yi, rush to Liu Yun Hall immediately. An extremely urgent matter has come up. Do not inform other Golden Core cultivators.”

After hearing the message, he didn’t delay and turned into a streak of light, rushing to Liu Yun Hall at an extremely fast speed.

He ran into the Drunken Immortal, who looked very serious, dropping his usually frivolous demeanor, likely having learned the truth.

“Senior Brother Drunken Immortal, what happened? The Sect’s Protective Array has been activated,” Lin Yi asked, pretending to be puzzled.

The Drunken Immortal looked up at Lin Yi, managed a forced smile, patted his shoulder, and said, “Junior Brother Yun Yi, you’ll know once you enter. The Liu Yun Sect is about to undergo a huge change. Be mentally prepared.”

He felt some sympathy for Yun Yi. This junior of his had only reached the Golden Core stage a few decades ago and he was already facing such a crisis. Truly, his luck was terrible.
